Specifications

Breeder Drinkers operate on low water pressure, are self-cleaning, keep litter dry and easily distribute medication. They have an independent ballast bottle and valve mechanism, so fresh water is always available. The valve is activated when as little as 2 oz. of of water is consumed. They are made of a rugged high-impact plastic, formulated to withstand the ravages of the active breeder house for many years.

Approximately 10-12  Breeder Drinkers are needed per 1,000 breeders, turkeys and game birds; 8-10 drinkers will serve 1,000 layers; in hot climates, 12-14 drinkers are needed per 1,000 birds. This drinker comes with 10' of hose and barbs; a full line of parts are available.
